NMEA network design software SDK

marine

he SDK package contains all the documentation, C/C++ source code and example (Visual Studio) projects necessary to understand and integrate the ActisenseComms DLL. It should allow a software developer to create a communications interface to any compatible Actisense product in a short period of time. Actisense products compatible with the ActisenseComms SDK are: NGT-1 NMEA 2000 to PC Interface NGW-1 NMEA 2000 Gateway The SDK forms the first level of support in using the ActisenseComms DLL to communicate with the NGT-1 and the NGW-1. Two useful software programs are also included, ‘Demo Project’ and ‘Test Project’. The ActisenseComms ‘Demo Project’ is included in Windows executable C++ source-code and Visual Studio Project form. It is a fully working example of how to use all of the possible API commands to talk to and configure the NGT-1, including how to send and receive NMEA 2000 messages. A simple dialogue program, it has been written specifically to help new developers integrate the ActisenseComms API into their software applications quickly and efficiently. This is the first point of call for all developers, to get started with their project. To further support the integration we also have: ActisenseComms VB.Net Wrapper is a starting point for understanding how to ‘wrap up’ the ActisenseComms DLL in VB.Net friendly code. It allows the C-code interface of the ActisenseComms API to be used easily inside a VB.Net environment. This wrapper example has been kindly supplied by one of our first developers as a guide for other developers. It does not include an example ‘Test’ project and will require an additional user code to be added to complete the project.
